Bit different from the other positions but there’s quite a lot of differences and the..
Biggest Rise: Logan Webb 27 to 2 (20 spots)
Biggest Drop: Dylan Cease 20 to 30 (10 spots)
Lots of rises, couple drops but those are the biggest! And see you tomorrow for day 12!
He’s number 7?
@@sp0rtz_bro my bad, yeah he’s at 7
@@anobsessedrangersfan_21how did you mistake that lol
@@makattack930 I really don’t know 😭😂 2 and 7 aren’t that close to each other..
@@makattack930 probally cuz mark said he finished 2nd in cy young voting
Eovaldi not in this list with Grayson Rodriguez and pretty much everyone between 30 and 21 is insane
He's predicting how players are going to pitch, not how good they are. This isn't as bad as his other takes
@@josephdelgado413 I think it’s a bad take to say the guys who got rocked on the big stage will be better pitchers than a guy who shoved a team to a World Series
@@trock6447well good thing this isn’t a top 30 playoff performers list
Eovaldi isn’t better than any of these guys, that being said he performs in big games. I get what your saying but eovaldi isn’t an ace, at best he’s a #2
@@trock6447tell me you don’t know ball. Look what Grayson did after being called back up. Watch some of the games. He looked disgusting and was unhittable.
Eovaldi not being on here is a robbery. I liked Yamamotos rank and Morse ranks were really good
its based off who he thinks is going to be good this upcoming season. Sonny has always been shaky and can have a bad year
I'm glad Gallen was so high, but Merrill Kelly is criminally underrated he deserves some love.
Bump this heavy
Sonny Gray at 27 is absolutely insane. He was literally the CY runner up and you put him at 27?! This was your worst ranking yet
And you put Aaron Nola at 19. 4.46 era. Above Gray, Sega, and Steele. You should honestly redo this video or something because this is nuts, and I usually agree with you
@@MeetTheMetsERA isn’t the only way to measure a pitcher but I agree Gray is low
@@MeetTheMets how's nola at 19 while wheeler's 7
well this is a projection for next year so he's probably putting him lower cus he's a little older
@@blooketgames.shorts Because Wheeler was way better this year.
Damn, the Tanner Bibee erasure is insane
With some of the guys on here too its crazy
My fantasy GOAT
I personally don’t understand how Eovaldi isn’t a top 30 pitcher in the league. Yes he had hot and cold streaks, but so did so many other pitchers. Nasty Nate was a top 15 pitcher when healthy this season (imo), and will probably be a top 25 pitcher again next year.
Thank you!! I been watching Eovaldi since he first got to the league. I was so pissed as a dodger fan that we traded him(I believe he went to the Marlins in that Hanley Ramirez trade??.. 2012ish?) And I always said that dudes gonna be a top of the rotation guy. He's got good stuff and his control has vastly improved. Man is also cold blooded. You can't teach the killer instinct that he has.
Merril Kelly? He’s way too slept on for how good he really is
I was thinking that
Underrated for sure
literally just commented that lol he's so underrated.
I love how he said if you didn’t pitch I’m not putting you on the list but yet puts Diaz as the number 1 reliever 🤦🏽♂️
Mets fans be like
he said if ur not pitching next year hes not putting them in. diaz should be pitching next year so he put him in the list.
Edwin Diaz is pitching next year. He said if the players aren't healthy NEXT YEAR 2024 he is not putting them in.
Diaz is pitching next year??
Listening comprehension be like
Thank you for the Gausman respect, absolute stud. When he has a bad start, answers back with 7 shutty followed by 3 more quality starts
“And that is why Kodia Senga is the best starting pitcher in the MLB.”
Not funny
@@MeetTheMetsand this is why you’ll never succeed in life
@@MeetTheMets You're a Mets fan...what's funnier than that?
Most predictable comment
STOOOOOOOOOP
Nathan Eovaldi not being here is insaneeeee
Dude for real! I kind of get leaving off Stroman, but to leave off Nathan is a crime
As a Mariners fan having 3 pitchers on here, I see this video as an absolute win.
Not impossible that we have 5 of the top 30 pitchers by the end of this year 👍🏼
Screw that, Bryce Miller should be on there.
@@Zach-ls1if Maybe, I have to rewatch the video and I may tell you
Freddy Peralta ahead of Fried is INSANE A
Musgrove too
@@artvandelay94 And Eflin!!! WTF
I think Fried should be in atleast the top 10 he has 4 seasons in a row with an era under 3.04 that being the highest and a fip under 3.30 again the highest in that span with 2 top 5 finishes for cy young and 3 gold gloves to go along dude is a dawg so Braves can we please pay this man
He just love to hate the braves a bit to much even if he a Mets fan
This isn’t a list for prior accomplishments it’s to predict what kind of season he thinks they will have next year. I love Max Fried but just cuz he was good before doesn’t mean he’ll repeat it. I hope he does and hope he wins a Cy cuz he deserves it, but I do feel him regressing sadly
I would 100% have Max Fried in the top 10.
Justin Steele at 26??? He was a Cy Young candidate
I rushed to the comments after i saw that in the video
as a braves fan, i’m actually not too mad abt the fried ranking, i’d probably put him in the 13-15 range, but he is absolutely better than musgrove and skubal
i just don't understand that ranking, he was great, marc had pretty much only good things to say about him and decided to put him way too low. 18 is far too low for a guy with a 2.55 era
Name a better lefty than Fried... Check the stats for every pitcher over the last 4 seasons and youll see Frieds name near or at the top in all of them.
@@jamesrichardson381i’d say the only lefty in the league that is better is snell, and idk if you can tell but i’m arguing in favor of fried here
Fried is criminally underrated. Honestly who cares about the pitchers that look more exciting because at the end of the day Fried has allowed around the least amount of runs per game and that's really what it should be about. Fried > Strider until proven otherwise (I'm a Braves fan too) but in any big game I'm taking Fried over almost any other pitcher in the league.
@@davidbalter9671Strider is overrated as heck. Don’t know why people think he’s better than Fried.
As I watched Logan Gilbert strike out Mitch carver, I got the notification that carver was going to the mariners
hey man, great video solid picks.. curious to hear your opinon on degree and if you think he's gonna come back strong in 24?
No merrily Kelly? Dude was our combo ace with Zac. So underrated.
Ill take Skubal at 16. Really looking forward to this guy next year.
So pumped to see three Mariners make the list. I think Bryce Miller could make a big jump onto this list next year.
I would honestly put more money on Woo tbh. Woo’s fastball is elite. Only needs to develop a off-speed pitch to put away lefties.
Justin Steele is criminally underrated!
Gausman doesn’t get talked about that much because his first 7 years were’t anything special. When he did figure it out, it was the shortened 2020 season. Even with how good his last two years were, there’s been enough volatility that it’s kept people from fully buying in. The overall numbers look awesome but they come with some peaks and valleys.
No Eovaldi is actually insane.
Excellent thank you. Helps a lot towards my fantasy league, I will target these pitchers in future trades.
Keep up the great work, truly appreciated.
Quick question, your team needs to sign 2 aces over the off season and they have the pick between Musgrove and Eflin or Sonny grey and fried which do you pick? This should be easy unless your Marc.
As a Braves fan I’m mostly fine with this. I’d say Fried is fringe top 10, and I could see a world where uncle Charlie sneaks into the 30 spot but probably 30-40 more realistically
Thank you! Finally someone showing love to Gausman. Guy has been absolutely filthy for the jays and basically goes under the radar
All love Marc but There’s a few I’d add, ik it’s difficult but eovaldi, degrom (I get he barely pitched but he put Diaz at 1 in reliever rankings), gray, bello, alcantara (I get he had a horrendous year but he’s usually consistent and had a down year), verlander (same with alcantara), Rodon (same as verlander and Alcantara), mcclanahan, woodruff, and probably some others im forgetting.
Edit: I watched the vid but I missed him saying the thing about the injury at the beginning. My fault
Half the guys you listed will not pitch in 2024
He literally said right at the start of the video guys that are out for a significant amount of time next year won't be on this list and named DeGrom and Sandy... you watched the video man
As a mets fan idk how this dude came up with this list. Still a huge fan but seriously?
Merry Christmas! As a Jays fan, I’m so happy to see Gausman at 3. He truly deserves to be ranked this high. His splitter/fastball combo is nasty. 237 K’s!
Good list King! Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!
When looking at pitchers, you look at either era or k’s. Those with good eras usually have low strike outs or vice Versa. That’s why these top 10 pitchers are high because they are able to balance both and are always consistent. Overall good rankings keep it up!
So I guess Max Fried is the next Braves player that Marc going to criminally underrate after he finally admits Ozzie Albies is top 5.
Marc you’re going to get a lot of heat for these rankings but I have to commend you on your intuition. As someone who pores over historical stats, injuries, pitch f/x data and velo/movement charts… Skubie at 16, Peralta at 15 above the likes of Max Fried and Sonny Gray shows me you look into peripherals and beyond. Love this video. Nice job.
Steele in the 26 spot is mad
Idk what mark was thinkinh
3 guys you are missing: Merrill Kelly, Justin Verlander, and Jordan Montgomery. How is Verlander not here??!!
Verlander is literally 40+ years old and definitrly showed that last year. Expect him to post a 3.8-4 ERA this year. Same (to a lesser extent) with Kelly, who's going to be 35. He would've been in my top 30 personally but I get why you'd look to include guys like Cease or G-Rod over him for next year.
Montgomery was an animal for Texas but has been a good-not-elite pitcher for his career to that point. If he maintains his Texas production, think he makes a spot next year.
@@mkpanther1343 Verlander hasn’t had an ERA above 3.5 since 2014 when he was 31 years old. He is still a top pitcher in the game and until he shows real regression, I’m keeping him in my top 15 pitchers. The guy has one 2 Cy Youngs after the age of 35. It’s just disrespectful to count him out because he is old.
@@noahd-7132verlander got hit kinda hard, had a 3.85 fip, his velocity was a little down, strikeouts were down, walks were up, and he isnt getting any younger
Grayson rodriguez here but no sign of tanner Bibee or Shane Bieber is hilarious
Bieber is washed bro
Having no Cleveland pitchers on here is criminal.
Project Bibee to do great things
Yo I appreciate you as a Mets fan giving Strider his flowers.
As a dodger fan... We been giving that man his flowers. He gets ahead in the count against you, might as well start walking back to the dugout. You ain't hitting that slider. He has, hands down, the nastiest stuff in baseball rn.
Good list but how do you put the former NL cy young winner behind 5-6 nl pitchers
Fried being 10th or 11th would have been reasonable. 17th is insane.
logan webb better be top 5 bruh
"I cant put Sandy because you are not pitching" Proceeds to name Edwin Diaz as the best reliever in the reliever list. What a clown
Most definitely bias
I believe Diaz will be playing this season..
Fried at 18 is criminal. Came up in 2017 and has a career 3.03 era. Finished 2nd in Cy young 2022. Was hurt most of last year and still put up elite numbers. Max Fried has done nothing to be that low on the list.
It’s based on how they might perform next year lil man. His peripherals are very average and he has some regression coming. Cry about it
Really wish you could have included FIP for each pitcher! You said it yourself- it’s a really important stat
I’d put Berrios on here but love the Gaus ranking
Marc, usually I love your lists, but this one was honestly not the best. How do you put a 4.58 Dylan cease on this list but not Chris bassist or Jose berrios? They eat up innings and have mid 3 eras. Are you still sad that C Bass is not a met?
Because he didn't watch the Blue Jays in 2023, typical.
Not everything is about ERA, especially when it comes to projections
@@michaelp5442 I feel like berrios and Chris should have better projections than cease.
@@avocadomusicdisagree with you there. We know the if cease is pitching his best ball he clears easily
@@Preebs33 except he’s not been playing his best ball. Anyway,
Merry Christmas
I was surprised a few pitchers didn't make it : Eovaldi, Buehler, Montgomery and Mitch Keller
Mets bias with Fried. Can’t tell me he isn’t one of the best 15
Putting peralta above him is just absurd
Yeah all Fried has done is lead or be at the top of every major stat over the last 4 seasons. It's funny his stats were right there in front of him despite injury still went 8-1 with era in the 2.50s after him you see a whole lot of high 3's era yet they're better? Yeah that makes a lot of sense.
@@jamesrichardson381 ABSOLUTELY CORRECT
Marc was Ranger Suarez in the conversation he’s criminally underrated
Spencer Strider deserves should be one if you factor in the mustache. Honestly one of the best the game has ever seen
Were there any pitchers (Reliever or Starter) that recorded a strikeout of all your ranked number 1 position player/DH on your list this year?
Glad Skubal got some recognition. He's been solid since making his debut and made a HUGE step last year despite starting the year on the IL. Look out for this guy.
Wow. No Verlander, no Eovaldi, no Kelly, no Bibee, No Montgomery 😮 I'm surprised. League is full of great SP 🔥
I feel like ranking each team’s rotations might fit this series better
Haven’t finished the video but I’m assuming no tanner bibee which is wild to me
Steele at 26 is criminal
Good Job girafe`
If verlander isn’t on here because he’s 40, I get that, but if not that’s very bold to replace him with Framber.
How is it bold 💀
@@rthraitoryou must not watch Astros baseball…
@@broshizxl7661 I do and framber has been better 🤣
@@rthraitor Verlander has been a cy young finalist every full year he's been with the Astros, and Framber has upside but had a very rough 2nd half last year outside of a handful of starts
Do you think Cole Ragans could be a top 30 pitcher the next year?
Nola is always up and down , he'll look like a top 10 pitcher next year
What does the guy who led the AL in SO & was 3rd in CY Young voting have to do to get on the list?
I watched every one of Gilbert’s starts last year, on no planet do I think he’s better than Steele, Gray, and Senga, and that’s as a huge mariner fan who thinks he’s going to have his best season next season.
The fact that verlander nor eovaldi is on this list in the 20-30 range is criminal
At the beginning of the video you said you weren’t ranking pitchers that missed time but how did Edwin Diaz get number 1 on the relief pitchers??????😂😂😂😂
Nice list
I’d be cool if fried was around 13-15 . 18 feels a tad low. But as a whole I can agree with this. If he wasn’t injured for so long he’s easily top 15
Love how Mark casually roasted the Phillies defense quite a few times in this video.
The Phillies are just so damn hateable, it's hilarious.
@@theywouldnthavetocensormei9231 damn right
Because it was awful when Schwarber had to play LF. Now Harper is back in the field full time and they can get an actual defender out there like Brandon Marsh who is very good instead of having the worst defender in the league
@@bradywright0408 still got Alec Bohm Trea Turner and Nick Castellanos who are all defensive liabilities but it definitely got a lot better
What’s crazy is the entire jays rotation of 2023 could have been considered for top 30 if u use ryu’s numbers across a full season instead
Was patiently waiting for you to try and convince the world that zack wheeler wasn't a top 5 pitcher, good job being unbiased, You didn't even mention his dogness in the playoffs
Never thought I'd see the day where the Orioles had not 1, BUT 2 Legit aces in their rotation. If they can add another arm in FA or via trade (Dylan Cease, Corbin Burnes) with that bullpen, and a super young offense that's only gonna get better when they add Coby Mayo and Jackson Holliday? Gonna be fun times.
Nathan eovaldi should be on this list. Snell is top 5 easily. Feel like erod should be here too
Yes, Blake Snell won the CyYoung and he put him so low. Insane of him!
Feel like Cole Ragans deserve more respect and a top 30 spot
So the ones i got right with my rankings
30:Cease
17:Musgrove
5:Burnes
4:Wheeler
3:Gausman
2:Strider
1:Cole
Got the top 5 spot on 😳
Mitch keller had 210 strike outs and a 3.80 fip over 194 innings. But nobody is gonna hear about that.
Wow! One of the top 5 pitchers in baseball was ranked #18. Yes he was injured, but his numbers don't lie.
Hoping Walker Buehler has an amazing season
Usually Marc ranks Mets higher than he should but Senga should be top 20 that ghostfork is nasty
I cry tears of joy every time I see Luzardo not having a 6 era
I think you should've had another jays pitcher in (either bassit or berrios) because they're both so nasty
Thanks for not missing on Kevin Gausman!
Walker Butane Buehler will have a top 10 caliber season! 🦒Mark my words!
Justin Steele who almost won the Cy young at 26 is criminal. I always stop watching as soon as the cubs player comes up way too soon. Im assuming Gallen was 25
I think Verlander deserves to be on the list. His numbers were actually really good over the full season last year it just took him a bit to hit his stride after the injury
And that’s why NYM SP Kodei Senga is the best pitcher of all time
Senga got a bit of a kick in the balls with Marc expecting regression.
Do a top 10 best older pitchers
A fun part of being a braves fan is the hate/respect you give Braves players...I enjoy your content thanks
19:21
As a Giants fan, this made me so happy!!!
...wow
7th is too low, Webb should be in the top 5
@@domesticdingo1417
I agree, but I am glad he made the top 10, at all. There are many baseball fans out there who underrate Logan Webb no matter what he does.
As a Braves fan, Logan Webb is criminally underrated by most baseball fans and media! I'd love to have him with the Braves.
@@TeeZee22 bot
that Grayson Rodriguez rank is tough tbh. Especially ahead of Dylan Cease. Wild
Surprised that Marc actually underrated Senga a little bit imo
Luzardo was such a good pickup when McClanahan got hurt in fantasy
Os with 3 of these top 30 starting pitchers is going to be crazy to watch. World Series 24’
Tarik Skubal came back from injury and put up Cy Young numbers. If he’s healthy this year he’s a top 5 pitcher in baseball
As a rabid Braves fan, I don't disagree with your placement of Fried, and considering the Dodgers recent moves, maybe this increases our chances of resigning him? If not, we're in the market for a solid lefty.
MLB and Yankees finally found the perfect sticky stuff for Cole.
Freddy peralta is a fellow MLB the show diamond dynasty player…me n my roommate faced his “the real” 99 freddy peralta card in duos last year (for the non DD players, MLB players get “the real 99” overall cards, its a 1/1 that only “the real” player can get on his account)
nice, i played against Jackson Chourio in co-op. love that they give the guys real 99s
brutal list
Snell has stated multiple times he wants to play in Seattle. (He grew up there.) The Mariners won't sign him, but imagine that lineup? Snell, Castillo, Kirby, Gilbert, and ENDING with another Cy Young winner, Robbie Ray.
There are 29 teams that are happy Seattle is having $$$ problems!
The top 5 was solid but the fact there was no Monty, Stroman, Bieber, Evoldi, Verlander, or Scherzer is insane
Scherzer is out for over half of next season is why he’s not here
Bieber does not deserve to be here.
@@CombatWombat322Bibee definitely did though, if he's gonna have Rodriguez and Eury
Buddy this isn’t a list of the best pitchers based on their career. It’s a list of how they will perform next year. Everyone you list is old, has bad peripherals, or is washed now. Doesn’t mean they are bad pitchers overall and half of that list will prob make the HoF, but they don’t belong on this list based on how they’ll do next year.
@@Reavezz Not a single player he listed is remotely close to being washed
